Share:
Ingredients
- 2 lbs potato peeled and diced about 3/8"
- 1/2 lb Bacon cooked and chopped or diced
- 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt or to taste
- 1 tsp black pepper ground
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 2 onion peeled and diced about 1/4", medium
- 3 cloves garlic peeled and pressed
- 1 cup fresh herbs any one or a combination of parsley, dill, green onion or chives, basil, and cilantro, chopped
- 1 lb meat optional; add 1 tsp of kosher salt if adding the meat; you may use chuck, chicken thighs, pork butt, etc, ground or diced
For stuffing
- 5-6 feet Hog casings
Instructions
- Soak and rinse the hog casings.
- Place the diced potatoes and the rest of the ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.
- Stuff the potato mix into the hog casings, not too tightly, and tie them into two links of equal size. Prickle the top with a needle. Stuffing loosely and prickling will help prevent splitting during cooking.
- Shape each link into a spiral.
- Preheat the steamer. Steam both sausages if the size of the steamer allows, or one by one, for 60 minutes.
- Remove the cooked sausages from the steamer and set them aside.
- Preheat a skillet with a mix of 1 Tbsp butter and 1 Tbsp cooking oil. Sear the sausages over medium to medium-high heat until well-browned on each side, about a few minutes per side.
- Enjoy hot from the pan, with your favorite side dish or a salad.
Notes
